Tokens to look for

User-Agent tokens

No user-agent token is documented: its visits don't name it.

robots.txt tokens

No robots.txt token is documented for it.

Check a visitor claiming to be GitHub Copilot CLI

We've filled in its token. Paste the full User-Agent from your logs and the address it came from for a real answer.

Paste the full User-Agent header from your logs. A single token such as GPTBot works too.

Optional

IPv4 or IPv6, as your logs show it. Used only for this check and never stored. Without it, a claim can only come back as can't be verified.

What this means for your site

GitHub Copilot CLI reads your docs and calls your API while it writes code. Clear docs and a working API decide whether it picks you.
